and ****. last night I was driving home and felt something hit my car. pulled over looked around, nothing.

parked the car, walked out to the car this morning and noticed something hanging from my exhaust.

a pretty large piece of the Carbon fiber has broken off and is just hanging there.

I guess there was a rock or something and it slammed into the exhaust.

ouch...sorry to hear that

So is there a hole now, or is the CF just covering another layer of metal? Thought at least some of it was all CF molded, to account for the weight savings that Tony says the CF gives you.

Err, that sucks. Sorry br0. Prolly best bet is to cut off the broken piece, and use a sharpie on the metal to make it dark and hard to see.

Pretty! Or rather looks great

GZ3 · 03-13-2011, 12:12 AM

very nice, i love this exhaust

Vegitto-kun · 03-13-2011, 02:49 PM

probably will do that soon.

beh bleeeh. sometimes I wonder why FI made the cans angle down so hard.

thin tires = scrape the **** out of it.
lowering it = scrape the **** out of it.

so I have to keep the stock height.

christian370z · 03-13-2011, 05:20 PM

If you have a moderate drop, I don't see how you would scrape the "sh1t" out of the cans. With my drop, I find there is plenty of clearance and as long as you don't drive over speed bumps or curbs at 15mph, don't see the problem. That said, there is some space to angle the cans up more to increase ground clearance.

Vegitto-kun · 03-13-2011, 05:43 PM

I scraped the exhaust when I had 30 thick tires instead of stock 45.
